Good morning. 😁 When life gives you lemons… We’ve all heard the saying before, but we’re about to see what happens when those who’ve already made the metaphorical “lemonade” share their good fortune with others. More below!
SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT
Kids Selling Lemonade Are Left Stunned When The Most Generous Customer Ever Stops By
Selling lemonade is a time-honored tradition and part of growing up for many kids. They raise money for different things. Sometimes the goal might be a charity donation to help a sibling or parent. Other times, just for ice cream money. Today, the kids were raising money to purchase an e-bike. The lemonade was $2.00 per cup, and a man pulled up in a pickup truck for curbside service.
They had a brief conversation about the e-bike. When it came time to collect, the kids selling lemonade watched as the man counted out his money. The look of surprise on their faces as the driver brought out five crisp $100 bills was evident.
The customer wasn’t just any man.
It was Victor Oliveira, who is also known as “The Good Boss.” Victor is a social media influencer and philanthropist. He made his money as an entrepreneur with a landscape company. He provides motivational content and encourages people to follow their dreams.
Over time, Victor has been instrumental in helping many homeless people turn their lives around, like in the video below. He finds willing workers jobs where they can excel. For addicts who are ready to make a change, he offers to help them find rehab services to get on the right track. And he has bought lemonade from many kids selling it on the side of the road.
For some people, Victor is the savior they weren’t even looking for. He just rolls up like a knight in a shiny truck, solving problems. Money cannot solve all problems, but he offers advice, encouragement, and motivation to people with nothing.
